A Prayer in time of Tragedy

A prayer, offered in response to the earthquake off the shores of Japan and the resulting tsunami.

O God, we stand in awe of the power of your creation; deal mercifully with your world, especially this day the people of Japan and all affected by the waves of destruction. Comfort those who have lost loved ones, give courage to those filled with fear, and stir up all your children to respond with the love and justice of your Son, who lives & reigns with you & the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.

Amen.
